A very simple order, guitar strings... But very specific ones. They arrived perfect on time, and the price was the cheapest I found on the web.
A fine, secure, highly adjustable support that does not damage an instrument nor dampen sounds with suction cups on the back of a guitar.
It’s difficult to say something about the Alhambra Linea Profesional that hasn’t already been said. It’s also difficult to say something about XGuitars that hasn’t been expressed. I’ve read everything I could find and I agree with most of it. This Alhambra guitar embodies the traditional techniques and superior materials that make it a great choice for serious students of the guitar who value the artistry and authenticity of this incredible musical instrument. More specifically, the Professional Line of Alhambra has everything you need to fall in love with your instrument, maybe, for the first time. My journey with musical instruments started in 1955 and I have played very poor to great musical instruments. Giving a great instrument to a player shows them how hard they might have been working in the past without even knowing it. They can now see how lovely a well made instrument feels and sounds and looks and, even, smells! It’s an experience a player will never forget. This Alhambra guitar will feed all of those senses and more. It is a work of art, true and simple. You would be hard pressed to find something nicer. Yes, you should stop waiting and make that jump from what you are now playing and try something that will make your playing what you wanted it to be when you first began. A final word about this guitar: the 12 hole bridge is incredible and should have been invented a long time ago. It makes a difference in the sound but it makes an even bigger difference in the simplicity of changing strings! It’s great. As far as strings go, again, Geoff is correct about the existing strings being good strings but I have changed to the Savarez 540 J Alliance strings and it was truly a day and night improvement. Geoff knows what he’s doing and his experience and professionalism should be listened to. Of course you could buy your guitar somewhere else but why on earth would you miss an opportunity to buy a great guitar from this great place with a man who, actually, knows what he is doing and does what he says!
I play acoustic guitar almost every day and the one issue I have with the typical design is that the body where I rest my finger picking or rhythm arm has to lay along a sharp edge, creating a semi-painful dent. I've used it a dozen times already at gigs, and this device prevents that. Highly recommended for the professional!
Fast and perfect delivery!
Love this support. I’ve tried many over the years but this one is the best.
I have tried four supports (original Sageworks, magnetic sageworks, guitar lift and this one). I’m very happy with the woodside, I play with the guitar very high and this is the most comfortable and secure for the highly lifted situation. Others were OK, but either had limited lift range or were not so easy to pack. I am very happy.

I replaced my acoustic guitar strings with Savarez
500AR Corum Red
Normal Tension
Classical Guitar Strings and I’m really enjoying the sound👍🏼
I appreciate the delivery time and the courtesy shipping my product a big Kudos thank you!!!
With best regards🙏🏼
The P140 Cedar Top Ramirez Estudio guitar has far surpassed my expectations. The craftsmanship and attention to detail provide a beautiful, working piece of art. The Spanish cedar top is slightly amber adding to the overall appeal of this guitar. The rosewood back and sides are dark with a beautiful mirror like finish. And it sounds as good as it looks, deep bass notes, clear and precise up and down the neck. Plays like butter; I'm glad I took the step and bought this guitar
Outstanding workmanship made in Spain ! Great sound and feel.
The quality and sound brings my playing to new heights ! Geoff is always great with service !
The Savarez Alliance Cantiga strings are great. They have excellent sustain and a well balanced tone. The strings arrived quickly. The service from Xguitars.com is great and I will be ordering more strings in the future. Thank you, Geoff!
I have a couple of these. I've tried several different styles of supports, and this is the best. The plexiglass style ones to me seem heavy and I think they cause a slight dampening in sound. It's not noticeable in front of the guitar, but from the player's perspective, I can hear a difference, and it sounds more full with the Murata. This is affordable, stable, and easy to pack. Couldn't ask for anything more.
The guitar was set up great and XGuitars and Geoff were absolutely top-notch. I highly recommend them !!
Swapped the stock tuners on my Ramirez for Schaller GrandTunes and the difference is incredible. The snakewood knobs feel luxurious, and the tuning action is buttery smooth after a light spray of 3 in 1. Stability is rock solid. My guitar holds pitch beautifully.
If you’re looking to add both elegance and performance to your instrument, these tuners are worth every penny.
👉 Highly recommended! Treat yourself!
The one thing that impressed me the most was the personal attention given to ensure that my order of guitar strings went out in a timely fashion. That was greatly appreciated. Upon receiving my order there was a personal note included that provided a little bit of information about the owners. It was a very nice touch; very welcoming. I am not a professional guitar player although I wish I was. The guitar belonged to my late husband and I have been enjoying learning on it. I do wish however that you folks sold mandolin strings. Anyway, thank you for making this purchase such a nice experience. When my strings pop again, I know who to order from
I love these strings and use no others. They make my classical guitars come alive. I was, however, encouraged to submit an honest review so I must mention that the second string (the B) on one set unravelled rather quickly. Alas. Not sure if I can order a single as a replacement. But evidently nothing is perfect and that string certainly won't deter my using the 520 P-1 strings exclusively.
I was happy with the entire process of purchasing my new guitar. Nice selection, responded quickly to email inquiry, and received guitar in timely manner. Lots of packing material to keep anything from happening to guitar during shipping.
At the behest of my teacher I started looking for an Alhambra 4P several weeks ago, only to be met with a short supply in the US and lengthy and uncertain back order times. The XGuitars website showed one in stock. It was real! Geoff reached out with an expected arrival date and to let me know that he would set it up himself. The guitar is gorgeous. The sound is gorgeous. It came with a personal letter from Geoff stating his very generous return policy. He offered advice for keeping the guitar in good condition and invited me to reach out with any questions or concerns going forward. When my teacher heard that I’d purchased a 4P from Geoff he was so happy for me! Apparently Geoff has a reputation for being one of the best of the best - a knowledgeable musician and a fair and service-oriented businessman. I am very grateful to have found XGuitars.
Shipping was fast and accurate. The Gitano respond to my need actually. My Cordoba guitar is a matte finish, the succion cup did not stay on more than few minutes, I had to install the included cling sheet (by Gitano) to make it work. Now the support stay in place as expected when in right position. I play in classic position. The fabric make the guitar slip on my leg, and change the angle of the guitar forward, as the support fabric receive the pressure on the side close to my body, So that's make the fabric (in front) unglue from the support, and holding just by the half of it. So i put some glue and put a new black tape to fix it better. It's look now more solid. I put a little piece of velcro in the center to make the fabric less slippering. Also, I am positioning to keep my leg straight and with the less angle as possible. I have now maximize every aspect that would make the Gitano work as expected and last for long time. For now it looked to work well, the next days will tell. If it still working ok definitively, I will be very happy with the Gitano support, because I like it.
Good purchase and accurate description of the product.
These are the best for my hybrid nylon string guitar, and very classy looking as well. Love em.... Thanks Xguitars . Btw, no drilling required, lined right up perfectly!
Great tone and price
Geoff has always gone the extra mile, not with just strings and accessories but also with many helpful suggestions and encouragement. All businesses should operate on such a level. Please keep up the good work! Thanks, Geoff
